Pretty polished game, however my cursor started off out of the screen area and I didn't know what to do for a few second.

The movement was really snappy and quick, I finished the game without firing once after the first level as the enemy shots were slow enough I could dodge them

Graphics are pretty polished and sweet, controls are well, the gameplays is simple but works pretty good.
Maybe enemies could have been a more bit difficult, in fact you can shoot all of them without being in range.
By the way, good job.

The game is pretty good. The levels are well designed and the graphics are very pretty. A couple of things that could have been better:

The shooting should have been automatic. Clicking a lot really fast is a little uncomfortable. This is also a problem because the enemies are shooting really fast, which gives them an unfair advantage.

The shooting sound seems to playing constantly, and the sounds overlap each other in a very noisy way.

That said, the game is overall very good.

Cool game, but I don't know if it's just because I've 16:10 screen but enemies couldn't see me eve tho I saw them, so it was really easy to kill them and peacefully walk through. Anyway nice game!

Nice minimal art style. I like the unique look of the ships, and the target graphic is great! It's a nicely paced little shooter.

I can't play, I have a azerty keyboard and can't change the keys. The game looks nice though.

Levels were designed well. Passing by enemies was also quite a challenge at the start, which I liked. A problem that I noticed is that my cursor can move off screen to the left and to the bottom a bit further than the actual screen boundary.

It hanged when I got to the end of lvl1, right when I came to what I guess is the end of that level. :)
Nice to get the good old aim a trying. Nice and simple!

nice game -- i thought it was funny that my ship could fly faster than the bullets -- good job
